are you sure apocalypse -40 % only has 20% effectivnes vs immunes after sunder ?

on the sheet i have -80% fire resistance , its from the gear and from the sacirifice demon combined and i dont think i can get it any higher without sacrificing nigma which is impossible

infinity will be like 17% and apocalypse +8 % so its additional 25% +- i assume

i should be riding like -105% fire resistance against fire immune monsters which isnot whole alot after investing into whole character just for this sole purpose and optimized

yes im sure, its -8% for fire immune monster

maybe add lower resist curse if ur not satisfied with it, like plague sword for merc, but have to jump in to let monsters to hit ( also be 20% effectiveness vs fire immune monster)
i wont recommend it after patch as u will lose conviction from binded demon

im guessing ur using pheonix or 4* facets monarch, but its not the best, al-diablos still hold the best final damage vs fire immune ( calculated )even it has less fire penetration as it boosts damage so much

Yup. Hex Siphon to compensate the insight loss and fire warlock should be good as new. Perhaps dumping bound demon completely, using Defiler instead.
